∙ 8y ago- natural transmutation occurs when radioactive isotopes decay producing a different element (alpha decay produces an element 2 places lower in atomic number, beta- decay produces an element 1 place higher in atomic number, beta+ decay produces an element 1 place lower in atomic number)
- artificial transmutation occurs when neutrons in a reactor (or atomic nuclei in a particle accelerator) are collided with and captured by other atoms, this usually produces radioactive isotopes that decay as described above
What kinds of projectile particles were used for the transmutations to form elements up to atomic number 101?
Usually, neutrons.
Which process in the rock cycle causes magma to form?
Melting is the process in the rock cycle that causes magma to form.
What is the process that causes CFC's to damage the ozone layer?
The process that causes CFC's to damage the ozone layer is called depletion. It is happening in the ozone.
What causes a rock to metamorphose?

What is Radioactivity and artificial transmutations?
Radio Activity- The process in which an unstable atomic nucleus emits charged particles and energy Artificial Transmutations- The conversion of atoms of one element to atoms of another.

Which type of radiation does not cause transmutations?
gamma rays
What has the author Zdenek Vintr written?

What kinds of projectile particles were used for the transmutations to form elements up to atomic number 101?

Name the process that causes the pulp to dry completely?
''Name the process that causes the pulp to dry completely?''
How do particle accelerators help in performing artificial transmutations?
Sometimes artificial transmutations will not occur unless bombarding particles are moving at extremely high speeds, and since a particle accelerator can accelerate a particles speed very close to the speed of light, then you would have to use a particle accelerator to make the transmutation happen.
Which process in the rock cycle causes magma to form?
Melting is the process in the rock cycle that causes magma to form.

What process causes minerals to form in shallow lake during dry conditions?
Studies show that the process evaporation causes the minerals to form.
